Objective: This study aimed to assess the knowledge and awareness levels of gynecologists and pediatricians in Gujarat, India, regarding nasoalveolar molding (NAM), a presurgical orthopedic intervention for newborns with cleft lip and/or palate (CLP).

Materials and Methods: A structured online questionnaire comprising 12 items was distributed to randomly selected gynecologists and pediatricians across Gujarat. The survey collected demographic data, clinical exposure to CLP, and specific knowledge about NAM. Descriptive and comparative statistics were used for analysis.

Results: Out of 104 respondents, 44.2% were pediatricians and 55.8% were gynecologists. Only 47.1% had heard of NAM or feeding plates, and just 30.1% knew its purpose. Merely 19.4% of the participants referred CLP patients for NAM therapy. The majority referred cases to plastic surgeons, while only 4.8% referred to pediatric dentists. Awareness was slightly higher among pediatricians, but the overall knowledge level remained low across both specialties.
